Frida, Diego and a Frida quote — pieces of an unfinished, failed project I worked on earlier this year. Diego measures just under 20cm tall, the tallest of the three. This project didn't reach it's intended outcome however it's failings taught me persistence in my creative pursuits. These three now act as a reminder to myself to stay strong and to believe in myself. " I leave you my portrait so that you will have my presence all the days and all the nights that I am away from you. "

Failed project - piffle - I love them! The words resonate too, I hand stitched a piece for my parents last year after my brother died "For all the things you'll no longer doAnd the things you'll no longer seeI will carry you always with meAnd we will go there together" words by me.

I'm a drawer and maker living in Melbourne, Australia. I love illustration, character creation and the magic that happens when creating by hand. Here I'll share with you my creative finds, moments from life and hand made creations of my own. By sharing I hope to inspire and spark imaginations like yours. Thanks for stopping by.
